Sunny Greetings from Central Valley of California to Port Rowan, my dear Shirley!

Thank you so much for being a part of this forum.

"I remember we had to memorize this poem in school.  I suppose they likely would not allow it nowadays." You are absolutely right. The school systems in California as well as in many other states around the U.S. do not allow this type of literature mentioned. It is very sad. They try to remove many terms that are associated with God from text books.

Again, I appreciate your friendship and support.

Until next time--


Keep Safe, Keep Smiling!

Sunny Greetings from Central Valley of California to Brampton, Nick!

Thank you so much for dropping by and for giving me such a beautiful graphic.


I just love it, a rainy day.

I am glad that Lt. Magee's poem brought you back to the Good Old Days.

Again, I appreciate your friendship and support.

Until next time--

Have an Awesome Weekend!

Sunny Greetings from Central Valley of California to Como, my dear Pierre!

Thank you so much for being a part of this forum.

"the expression in poetry never gets old when inspired within a Holy and purified desire for truth." This brings to my mind a quotation from one of my favorite American artists, Arnold Frieberg, whose paintings were often inspired by religious themes:
"Art is always best when serving a cause greater than the artist."
You also wrote: "I read this for the first time, and felt the pinch of salt all over me, a burning feeling filled with emotion ."

I totally agree that the expression in Lt. Magee's poem never gets old. One of my mentors introduced this poem to me almost twenty years ago. I have read it so many times and I still, also, have "a burning feeling filled with emotion" very time I read it again.

Again, I appreciate your friendship and support.

Until next time--

Have an Awesome Weekend!
